Debian 10 Buster: DLA-3376-1 Critical: Svgpp Library Security Issues
debian lts
April 1, 2023
Multiple security issues were discovered in svgpp: a C++ library for parsing and rendering Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) files
Topics Covered
Summary
CVE-2021-44960
The XMLDocument::getRoot function in the renderDocument function handled the
XMLDocument object improperly. Specifically, it returned a null pointer
prematurely at the second if statement, resulting in a null pointer
reference behind the renderDocument function.
CVE-2019-6245 and CVE-2019-6247:
issues were discovered in Anti-Grain Geometry (AGG) within the function
agg::cell_aa::not_equal. Since svgpp is a header-only library, the issue is
only transitive in theory. As a result, only a dependency version hardening
has been added to the control file.
For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version
1.2.3+dfsg1-6+deb10u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your svgpp packages.
